Some of our high society got odd in
struction and amusement from May
Fortescue, the English actress and SEN
timental plaintiff, just before her de-
parture for home. She is q beauty, be it
understood, and her Clearly law suit
against Lord Garmoyle has forced her
into fashionable consideration. She may
have failed, ms they assert, in her profess
sional tour of America, but her positively
last appearance before an audience was q
triumph. Bernhardt is playing here.
She freakishly insists upon making the
intermissions between acts half an hour
long. The people resent this trifling, and
Manager Abbey is seriously annoyed, be-
cause it hurts the business. Fortescue has
been under his direction, too. She told
him that she wished to see the great
Frenchwoman act.
'In give you u box, - he said, ''if you
will wear good clothes, look your prettiest,
and sit at the front, so that the audience
will have something to divert them during
the long waits"
cts a bargain, - replied Fortescue; II
will agree to entertain the people 'twixt
acts" She did, with a vengeance. She
wore white hufily, and carried IN i'm
mense fan OF the same color. That made
her conspicuous, for 1t is not the custom
in New York to don such clothes for the
drama, though 1t is Ion deliberately at
the opera. She seated herself at the front
of q lower proscenium box, facing the au-
dience, and proceeded to impersonate a
.vivacious, ingenious maiden. 1t was as
bold an undertaking as anybody ever saw
in a theatre; 1t was n marvel of demon
strative pantomime; picturesque poses
and ~extravagant g~esticulation ~alternated;
a bevy of fellows supported her tableaux;
and the amazed and amused spectators
found that the tedium of the half hour
intervals was beguiled. But it would be a
pity if the young girls present were to
take pattern of Fortescue and behave in
that extraordinary fashion at the theatre.

also Of the belief That ere L can get rid Of
this diamond, there is still misfortune in
store for me-
had now to leave in order To change
carriages, and 1 was not sorry to bid my
fellow traveller farewell, as he had made
me feel eerie.
About a year Later 1 was in Paris, and
one morning read in a newspaper an ac-
count of the sale of the famous Jewels of
a Russian princess, Several paragraphs
farther on, I read that the body Of a muir
dered man, who was unknown, had been
found on n Of the principal boulevards.
A short description followed, which
at once suggested to me my fellow
traveller of a year before, on the
Orleans railway. 1 fastened to the morgue
and found my fears realized; for there lay
the diamond merchant, who had been ia
tally stabbed between the shoulders. From
the Information that 1 YVES able to give,
1t wa concluded hat he would be known
to the large jewel dealers, and as the re-
suit Of inquiries in a short time the BODY
was claimed by friends. 1 afterward
learned that he had been the victim of a
deeply laid robbery, as a very valuable
diamond, which 1t was discovered he had
brought to Paris in order to dispose of,
was missing, but his purse, which con
tanned a considerable sum of money, and
his other ~yalusbles had been left un-
touched.-Crawford Scott in Belgravia.

Said a commercial traveller: "My bust
ness calls me a good deal to Colorado and
New Mexico, n 1 have many acquaint-
ances n friends out there. One Of my
friends is q little fellow named McDer-
mott, editor Of o mining camp paper. He
Is not much bigger than q pint of cider,
but he has tremendous nerve. Ha is as
quick as lightning with his gun, and is not
afraid of the best man that walks. He
was telling me Of one experience he had a
few months g A big, tough fellow
walked into his sanctum one evening and
announced that he had come to do up the
editor. He had a six shooter in his hand
and advanced with 1t cooked. 1t happened
that my friend had Just sent his revolver
out to be repaired, and he was without a
weapon. He tried to palaver with the
desperate and talk him out of his passion
in order to gain time. Bnt the more he
talked the fiercer the caller became. Sus-
pecting that the editor was unarmed, he
took fendish delight in holding his victim
covered with his revolver and telling him
that he had only sixty minutes to live.
But my friends brain was working at a
lively rate all this time, and while he
talked he held his pen in the flame of the
gas jet over his desk.
Without the desperate suspecting what
he was up to, he succeeded in getting the
pen red hot-it took only a few seconds
and then he made a jump for his assail-
ant SO suddenly and with Such catlike
quickness that before the ruftian, taken
off his guard by the supposition that the
editor was unarmed, could fire a shot the
little man had thrown one arm around the
big fellows neck and was iabbing his red
hot pen into his face at the rate of 200
strokes to the minute. Imagine the
wounds that big, sharp, red hot pen must
have made, held securely in a strong eel
luloid holder, driven by the arm of a man
fighting for life. Think of the suferings
the desperate must have endured in the
few brief seconds before his agony con,
quered his courage and caused him to
throw h revolver to the floor as a token
that he gave up the battle. That ruflan
-he was drunk on that occasion-is now
one of the best friends the little editor
has, though his face Is badly SCARED
from the wounds inflicted on him. Over
the desk of my friend hangs a pen, still
covered with blood stains its whole
length, n over it is a placard, written
in the blood that was formed upon it Just
after the battle: 1.-THE pen is mightier
than the six shooter. Chicago Herald.

With all the progress Of physical cul-
ture in the last few years, much remain
to be done. Professional and business
men still stick to their Office chairs until
brain or liver or stomach go completely
wrong. The sallow faces and yellow eyes
seen in New York streets tell as depress-
ing a story as the gross, pasty fat OF men
who persist in their sedentary lives until
apoplexy takes q hand. No man can do his
best work when he is in such an unclean,
miserable physical condition. His views
of life become bilious, and his moral code
demoralized. 1t is as much n sin to
neglect the body as to neglect the mind

years before the war his brother got into "A

1t seemed to William that the brother wa-
likely to suffer severe personal injuries, and
so he ran to his defense. The result was the
death Of Frost and the trial on the charge Of
murder Of the subject of this sketch. He was
acquitted, however.
Capt. Bush's war record was a brilliant
one. His personal bravery was remarkable.
He went into the battle Of Cedar Mountain
armed only with a club, being under arrest
at that time under some trumped up
charge. This led to his court martial, but he
was honorably acquitted. At this battle
Capt. Bush was dundee in the left elbow,
and some time later was taken prisoner and
confined in the Staunton. En. iail From
Staunton he was taken to Libby prison. at
Richmond, but was afterward exchanged.
After his release he was mustered out with
the regiment June 8, 1868. He then became

tered the employ of the government as a de.
tective. His health was not good during the

THE LATE JUDGE CARTIER.


HAD@
Advisers
David K. Cartier, chief justice OF the court
of the District Of Columbia, died at his resi-.
dence in Washington on the evening of Aprij
10, aged nearly 10 years. He was the last OF
that small circle who were on intimate terms
with Abraham Lincoln and are credited with
doing much to fix the tone of his administra-
ton as far as it was personal. Judge Cartier
had completed twenty-Eour years of ~continu-
Gus service as chief justice Of the district
having taken the place early in 1868 by ap.
pointment of President Lincoln. When he
was appointed the courts of the district were
IN chaos; he organized a good system and
maintained n high standard of judicial iutae-
rity. He had led the so called sboltp In the
Ohio delegation in the Chicago convention of
1850, "-hich resulted in the nomination of
Lincoln, and was a devoted friend and sun
porter of the president to the last. He was
also among the first to take strong ground IL
tnyor of the nomination of Grant, and
throughout the middle part of his life eyer
cised great influence in politics.
